Released in October 2012, “Monster” is the 20th studio album from legendary rockers Kiss. After listening to this latest release, it’s clear to see why this band has maintained such a loyal fan base and the nickname “The Hottest Band In The World” after all these years. …

I was 16 (now I’m 21) when I started listening to The Cranberries. They were the ones who made me like music in general, and they’re the ones I’ll probably always hold in my heart. And that is why I’m really biased when it comes to this particular band, …

John Denver: Rocky Mountain Christmas CD is a really nice album to play during the holidays especially if you like that crisp, outdoor feel, because that is present all through this record. Denver was known for his environmental beliefs and the song choices for this album reflect that.

“The Day I Tried To Live” is just one of many singles off of Soundgarden’s absolutely amazing 1994 release “Superunknown”. Soundgarden was probably the most interesting group out of the Big 4 back in the day. Where Alice in Chains was known as being the heavier more “metal”, Pearl …

Black Curtains is a song by Megadeth which appears on their album Youthanasia. The track starts off with an extremely generic rhythm from Mustaine whcih makes me dearly hope that something better will soon follow this intro. The verse soon kicks in and this section is slightly better although …

One of my favorite artists is Michelle Branch (solo or with The Wreckers). When her album Hotel Paper came out seven years ago, I immediately bought it. Even though it’s seven years old, I still find myself listening to the songs today. The album has many …

If I could change something from As I Am by Alicia Keys, it would be the image of her CD album. It is quite oldish looking, but I suppose she wants it that way. Not that bad anyway, but I would prefer the glam Alicia Keys on the …
